Restaurant Toque!

Dined in heaven - thank you for an amazing dining experience! Excellence at its best

Toqué!, the grand old distinguished lady of Montreal's food scence, does it again.

We have been going to this restaurant, one a year, every year (except of course for when it was closed due to the pandemic), for quite sometime now. Yesterday's dinner was as good as fine upper scale dining can be. Flawless service, amazing food. Perfect wine pairing. I mean literally perfect. My wife and I took the 7 courses degustation menu, with wine pairing, along with additionnal drinks and cocktails. With taxe (15% in Quebec), tip (20%, which is kind of standard for this type of restaurant when you do get perfect service), it did cost us a little over 841$ CAD, for (2) persons. Now, it is possible to go there and not spend as much (and it is also possible to go chez Toqué! and spend MUCH MUCH more, if you go wild wine selection wise), but it is what it is. Anyhow, when you want a top notch world level gastronomic experience, it's the kind of price tag one should expect. Still, for upper middle class folks like us (as opposed to actual rich people), let's say we cannot afford to go there every night...

Nous attendions l’occasion de manger au Toqué depuis plusieurs années. L’attente en valait la peine. Une belle soirée.

Excellente soirée
Le service est impeccable
Nous avons pris menu dégustation avec accord de vins
Comme nous célébrions un événement spécial, nous avons reçu une carte signée de monsieur Laprise.
Très belle attention

Service was a bit slow, but not to the point of taking away from the whole experience.

Service très attentionné, mais attente très longue pour les plats, où le très bon côtoie le banal.

Glad that Toque is back in business. We missed them for the past 18 months!

There were not many food options. The appetizer was good but I was expecting a little more.
The duck was good also… but I was expecting more. The atmosphere is very intimate and quiet. I went alone and sat at the bar, and it was very very quiet.

It was simply amazing! An unbelievable experience!

Délicieux plats, super service. Le sommellier maîtrise son domaine dans les moindres détails. Merci pour la belle soirée!

Very disappointed by the degustation menu : meat undercooked, strange associations and salty bill…

Nous avons passé une très belle soirée. Les plats étaient excellents super bien présentés. Service hors pair, dessert incroyable. Nous sommes très contents de notre premier expérience au Toqué

Dégustation menu very good, wine is very abslolutly good , service :everyone is so Kind ❤️

We took the lamb and we were only allowed 2 small cubes each often covered with a too thick layer of fat. After spent over $ 1600 for 4 people, I was still hungry when I arrived home. The quality of the dishes is undeniable, but the quantity does not invite to return there.

Tout était parfait, tout était bon, mais on n’a pas eu de « wow » avec la cuisine

Différent d'il y a quelques années,
Le saumon manquait de saveur
Les pétoncles et oursins délicieux
Poca aucune saveur même fade
Pintade très bon ainsi les ,egumes
Dessert trop artificiel pas recherché,
Coût de l'ensemble exorbitant pour la qualité.

Good food. Nice and polite service staff. Quiet and descently lit dining area. Lots of wine to choose from. The Chef would come out to mingle with guests.

Ça faisait un moment que nous désirions aller manger au Toqué. C'est fait, croyez-moi, sa valait le détour. La nourriture était excellente, le service parfait et l'accord avec les vins bien pensé. Nous avons pris le menu dégustation 7 services et les portions étaient de bonne dimension. Merci à toute l'équipe, tant en salle qu'aux fourneaux.

The environment is great and abundant course to serve which is amazing

Food selection and appeal was so so and service and ambiance was excellent!

Probably the best restaurant in Montreal and possibly in Canada. Keep in mind that this high level of quality comes at a price, but I'm happy to pay for greatness. So happy that they are now re-opened after the long COVID winter.

À la hauteur de nos attentes du début à la fin... Wow!

Parfait.

Tout simplement parfait.

Meilleure bouffe à vie.

Excellent repas dégustation. Le service était impeccable et la nourriture excellente. Je recommande le menu dégustation.

It’s a bit expensive...not the best restaurant in Montréal anymore

Une expérience à découvrir au moins une fois à Montreal

Quelle expérience! Des gens sympathiques et professionnels. Du début jusqu’à la fin du repas nous nous sentons pris en charge et importants. Repas 7 services accompagnés de vins dégustation, tout excellent par contre faut prévoir un bon budget...

Toqué is great restaurant. It is located in old town and is part of Relais et Chateaux. The food is excellent. The service (Kate in particular) was outstanding.

We went for the tasting menu and the wine pairing. The wine was very good even though sometimes came a too strong wine in the beginning of the meal.
The food was not so tasty due to a not harmonic combination of ingredients, like pickles with carpaccio and cheese with onion. Good aervice.
Overall I would give a 6 or 7 out of 10 to the restaurant

Not our first time at Toque! Very accommodating on allergy issues - even on a tasting menu.

It couldn’t have been any better.
The taste menu was amazing...The service was impeccable, they care about every detail and even gave my girlfriend and I a tour of the restaurant. It was a beautiful experience, and would highly recommend it for a special occasion.

Thoroughly enjoyed the tasting menu with wine pairing... so tasty and a real treat on date night.

Excellente expérience a tous niveaux!

Très intéressants comme repas gastronomique, une des meilleurs table de Montréal, mais un peu veillot et traditionelle francais.
Bien présenté, mais pourrait être un peu plus dynamique avec vaisselle autre que seulement blanche.
Devrait présenter plus d'aliment du Québec.
Carte des vins très francaise traditionnelle, pourrait présenter plus en découverte de vin du Québec, Ontario et Okanagan.
Devrait s'inspirer du resto La Tannière à Québec

Restaurant digne de sa bonne réputation. Bonne nourriture régionale de qualité , raffinée, originale avec une belle présentation. Bon service un tantinet envahissant. Belle ambiance tranquille.

service et nourriture exceptionnels! L'expérience est toujours inoubliable.

Great gastronomic restaurant. They emphasize on food quality and the result is pure.

I wanted to try this restaurant for a very long time. Finally took my wife there on a date. Unfortunately, the place failed to impress us. Yes, the food presentation in the plates was great, so was the service but that was it. Some of the courses were quite blend in term of taste and aroma. Same for the first two wine pairing we had. Very ordinary wine with very little taste or aroma. For the amount of money spent, I was expecting much more in terms of flavours but seems like the effort was mostly put into the presentation. The menu changes quite frequently so I am sure some days might be better.

We truly did not appreciate the attitude of our main waiter. Very obnoxious and pretentious. For that reason, our overall appreciation dropped considerably.

Best tasting menu and wine pairing I have ever had! Our server and the som were both very patient and lovely. Could have been more romantic very big space but will be sending all of my clients to you from all over the world when they are in Montreal!
